Overall behaviors and attitudes of drivers have gotten so much worse since the pandemic and sadly continue to do so. I swear it wasn’t this bad before pre pandemic.

You’re not wrong. All of our insurance rates are going up because of post pandemic driving stupidity. It’s all selfishness, me first/I’m the only person on the road mentality that’s driving the unsafe behavior and increased accident rates.

Yes, in Hartford. During pandemic it was super cheap $128 then it rose by jan 2023 the price now at $372 a month. Like most insurance agents, they would tell you that it's the area and overall safety of where your vehicle would be parked.

You need to shop that around. I work in insurance those are rates we see for new drivers or drivers with lots of tickets and accidents.

yeah, at this time without discounts or using snapshot device, it is higher. In the past with old car, the number of claims also hurt as well. I learned one lesson about insurance is be quiet and pay out of pocket. Unfortunately, that price is the asking price for my location. Using a snapshot device also helps for individual rates. Unless I move to a cheaper rates town then yeah I could get it cheaper.

According to the dot there was a dip during the pandemic for obvious reasons but afterward it just went back to "normal".
